Biography
Professional biography
I joined the Faculty of Arts and Social Science in 2021 as a Lecturer in Criminology. My teaching duties are split across several undergraduate Criminology modules.
My research currently covers three distinct strands. Firstly, I am interested in the insights that can be gained from humanmade objects – particularly those that are considered obsolete or trash. Secondly, I am collaborating with my colleagues Professor Deborah Drake, Dr Dan McCulloch and Dr Keir Irwin-Rogers on complexity theory in relation to social science. Finally, I am working with Professor Louise Westmarland on research focused on policing ethics and integrity.
